He's alone, but he's a tomb raider!

On the counter, the Qing Dynasty high-quality replica of the bronze mirror with the goddess Luo pattern was put back into the sandalwood box, but unlike the previous careful handling, this time the action was noticeably rougher.

However, Feng Shayan's expression did not turn cold; instead, she showed a hint of gratitude.

It was a gift, after all. Luckily, Qin Yun recognized it; otherwise, it would have been a huge joke if it had been given away.

It's alright if the siblings lose face, but if they damage Feng Zhenghao's reputation and the credibility of the Tianxia Society, then it will be a huge loss!

How much kickback did those scoundrels in the purchasing department take? They can't even handle such a small matter.

When I go back this time...

Although Feng Shayan didn't say anything harsh, it was easy to imagine that the person in charge of purchasing was going to be in big trouble.

……

Qin Yun tapped the table lightly with his fingertips, thought for a moment, and then spoke up.

"Star Eyes, and Miss Feng."

"If you two trust me, instead of going to the trouble of searching elsewhere, it would be much easier to just take a ready-made antique from my shop."

He pointed to a small, elegant object on the display shelf and introduced it softly.

"A Ming Dynasty Hetian jade pine and crane longevity ewer, the market price is just around 500,000. We are all friends, if you two want to buy it, I will give you 360,000. It is in accordance with the number of the Heavenly Stems and is considered auspicious."

Its unique design is sophisticated and tasteful, far from the mass-produced items you see everywhere on the market.

This teapot is exquisitely carved from a single piece of Hetian jade, with a warm and smooth texture and an elegant and understated color.

The teapot features a shallow relief carving of ancient pine trees and cranes perched on branches, with graceful and flowing lines and delicate, rounded carving that lacks any sharp edges.

Since ancient times, pine trees have symbolized longevity and good health, while cranes represent a smooth career and continuous advancement.

When pine and crane are together, it symbolizes longevity, good fortune, and a bright future.

The object is small and elegant, and it complements the desk in the study perfectly. It is not ostentatious or extravagant, but rather understated and refined, which shows the collector's cultural heritage.

This was given to a high-ranking official who had a particular fondness for antiques.

It avoids the highly sought-after Ru ware, while winning people's hearts with its unique appearance and auspicious meaning. It is respectable and dignified, and is not easy to cause controversy.

It is absolutely the most appropriate and elegant collection for social interactions.

Upon hearing this, Feng Xingtong and Feng Shayan's eyes lit up, and they nodded repeatedly.

"Brother Qin is so thoughtful; we really came to the right person today!"

The sand swallows even solemnly bowed.

There was no haggling involved; the purchase price of 360,000 yuan, plus 20,000 yuan for appraisal, was directly transferred to the bank card.

"Today, Mr. Qin not only helped us distinguish between truth and falsehood, but also pointed out the right path. The world will remember this kindness."

"If Mr. Qin ever needs my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask. Within the Tianjin area, I, Feng Shayan, will never refuse."

Qin Yun nodded slightly, without saying anything more.

It's really too difficult to get by in the world of supernatural beings.

Just as Zhang Huaiyi said.

If you are too strong, others will be jealous of you and try to harm you; if you are too weak, others will look down on you and trample on you.

They will only be happy if you are similar to others.

Furthermore, despite the fact that the Tianxia Society appears to be thriving and at its peak under Feng Zhenghao's management, it's not a fool's tale.

However, Qin Yun himself knew that because of Feng Tianyang and the Spirit Control Technique, the World Society was also facing a lot of trouble.

Such a powerful force is worth a simple transaction to gain connections.

However, directly attaching oneself to someone would be a losing proposition.

After buying the jade pot, the two exchanged a few more polite words, and Qin Yun was advised to keep an eye out for Song Dynasty Ru ware.

Feng Shayan and her brother then hurriedly left with the wooden box.

……

The store returned to silence, and Liu Yanyan obediently tidied the counter, not daring to say a word.

She has long lost her initial arrogance. After witnessing Qin Yun's strength and his vast network of connections, Liu Yanyan is now filled with awe and dutifully performs her duties.

After all, compared to the Feng family of the Tianxia Society, the Liu family of Xiangxi is really nothing.

Qin Yun didn't even give a damn about the Feng family, let alone her family.

only……

It's strange, really. The antique business is supposed to be a business that doesn't do business for three years, but then makes enough to last for three years.

It was normal for the Silent Shop to have not had a single customer for several months.

But today, the shop was unusually bustling.

Just as Qin Yun picked up his teacup and took a sip, the wind chimes at the entrance of the Silent Shop were suddenly struck with such force that they almost fell off.

Immediately afterwards, two figures, looking travel-worn, rushed in.

The man walking in front was burly, wearing a brown leather jacket, his trouser legs covered in yellow mud and grass clippings, and his shoes were inlaid with dried sand.

His hair stood up in a messy, upright manner, and although his face was full of fatigue, he still exuded a boisterous and energetic spirit.

As luck would have it, the person in front of him was none other than Fatty Wang, who had sold him the Exquisite Jade Key before.

The man following behind him was tall and straight, wearing a dark windbreaker. Although he was also covered in dust and looked tired, he had a proper posture and a calm and sharp gaze.

With that kind of aura, you can tell at a glance that he comes from a military background.

Following Wang Pangzi, and with that same kind of demeanor, it's safe to assume that the newcomer is Huba Yi.

Moreover, judging from their appearance, they probably just came out of the tomb!

The earthy smell unique to tomb raiders lingered on his body for some time.

As soon as he entered the store, Fatty Wang's eyes were fixed on Qin Yun. His previously tense face instantly broke into a smile, and he spoke in a loud voice with a thick Beijing accent.

"Oh my! My dear Master Qin! I've finally found you!"

"My brother and I faced death on this trip; we almost lost our lives and didn't make it to see you alive!"

Wang Kaixuan spoke very quickly, his tone revealing an unconcealed mix of trepidation and excitement.

Perhaps because of the previous transaction, Wang Kaixuan looked at him with more trust.

In this world, people dare not easily sell the artifacts they obtain from tomb raiding and gold robbing on the market, lest they bring trouble upon themselves.

From the previous transaction of selling the exquisite jade key, Wang Kaixuan knew that Qin Yun had exceptional insight, reliable methods, and a tight tongue.

They never question where the money came from, and they're always generous with their spending!

In this situation, Qin Yun was definitely the most suitable way for the two brothers to dispose of the stolen goods.

Huba followed behind Wang Kaixuan.

He was, after all, a son of a military family, and his ancestors had a tradition of military prowess, so he wasn't as loud and boisterous as Wang Kaixuan.

He nodded slightly to Qin Yun, his voice steady.

"Mr. Qin, I apologize for disturbing you."

Qin Yun put down his teacup and glanced at the two of them.

While asking questions, he brewed another pot of tea and pushed the teacups in front of the two of them.

"Who do we have here? It's you, Fatty."

"Did they just come up from the field? Judging by the looks of it, they've been through quite a bit. Maybe they dug up a giant rice dumpling?"

"you do not say!"

The fat man plopped down in the chair in front of the counter, gesturing vividly to the name, spitting as he spoke.

"Mr. Qin, to be honest, do you know where my brother and I went this time?"

What about the place where people were sent to work in the countryside in Inner Mongolia? The Nine Dragons Covering the Jade Lotus Feng Shui Tomb, the Twin Mountains Embracing the Bright Moon Feng Shui Formation, the Heavenly Treasure Dragon Fire Glazed Top, the Mercury Boy, and the Kwantung Army Base!

Under the fat man's rambling, Qin Yun also recalled the plot of Ghost Blows Out the Light.

That Jin Dynasty general's tomb seems to be the tomb of Guo Hama, also known as Guo Bin, a famous general in the late Jin Dynasty.

There are definitely a lot of good stuff inside, but I wonder if Hu and Pang managed to get anything this time?

After a lifetime of tomb raiding, they returned still penniless. If it weren't for Shirley Yang's financial support, Hu and Pang would probably have starved to death.

If I remember correctly, in the original story they only managed to steal a pair of jade pendants?
